We had a nice two nights at Scout Mountain. It's a beautiful place to stay. The only issues we had were the width of the site (very narrow and not advertised as so), and the restrooms were not very clean. We would stay here again at a different site for sure!

The fact that they no longer have trash service is pretty annoying. I have stayed at Scout Mountain twice now, but that really makes me not want to stay again.

This was definitely one of the best campgrounds I have been too. The facilities are very well taken care of and the local scenery and fauna are amazing.

It was an alright campground but my stay should have been a little shorter than was planned. For myself, something a little closer to Pocatello or to the Snake River for fishing would work as my next time in the Pocatello area. Group campers in the front were having a great time at the campground.
